Message from Brown, Jeff via eLinkThere are some existing discussion threads about this, I don't think itspossible to count concurrent users. You could break your auditing events down into smaller periods of timeand report that from "9:50 - 10:00 am" there were 200 items added, 20copied, 40 opened, etc. Then you could at least see # of eventshappening during those periods.I would just tell whoever is asking for the report that this stat is notavailable, along with an explanation of why.If you're trying to report if your system can support x amount of usersconcurrently, you would be better off with a performance monitoringtool.This article might be of some use to get some SQL queries about peakusage:https://knowledge.opentext.com/knowledge/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objId=3726834&objAction=viewJeff-----Original Message-----From: eLink Discussion: Livelink LiveReports Discussion[mailto:livereportsdiscussion@elinkkc.opentext.com] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2008 10:48 AMTo: eLink RecipientSubject: Report for Concurrent UsersReport for Concurrent UsersPosted by Martindale, Thomas on 03/06/2008 10:44 AMDoes anyone know of a way to count the peak number of concurrent usersat a point in time?The company I work for are upgrading from LL9.1 to 9.7 and I'm trying tocollate usage stats, this one is proving very difficult to get.Thanks to anyone who can help![To reply to this thread, use your normal E-mail reply function.]============================================================Discussion: Livelink LiveReports Discussionhttps://knowledge.opentext.com/knowledge/llisapi.dll/open/Livelink_LiveReports_DiscussionLivelink Server:https://knowledge.opentext.com/knowledge/llisapi.dllTo Unsubscribe from this Discussion, send an e-mail tounsubscribe.livereportsdiscussion@elinkkc.opentext.com.PLEASE BE ADVISED:The information transmitted herein is intended only for the named recipient(s) above and may contain information that is privileged, confidential or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.

This can be done by running SummaryTimings Logs and reading them with the Performance Analyzer. To turn onthe Summary Timings add the following line in the [options] section of theopentext.ini file:

wantSummaryTimings=TRUE

Stop the Livelink Server service. Clear the logs directory. Restart the Livelink Server service. Youwill need to do this for all of your front-end servers. Collect theselogs for about a week or two (depending on the number of users and amount ofactivity on your system).

Then stop the Livelink server service andcollect the timings logs. Restart the Livelink Server service and run thetimings logs through Performance Analyzer and look at the thread tab and selectbusiest hour. You can break that down to the busiest minute and get arough idea of your concurrency. Unfortunately there is no simple way thatI know of to calculate concurrency any other way.

Except that this doesn't work if your organisation uses LL Explorer as well as the browser (at least, not with LL Explorer 4.8.2) as user name is not recorded in the summary timings for lapi functions!
